It’s great to be able to get a laugh 24/7 online from the All Things Comedy website, but it’s even better to catch some of its comedians live on stage.

Joe Bartnick and Cort McCown, hosts of the ATC’s “Insensitivity Training” podcast are launching a new live show bearing the same name at The Ice House in Pasadena. On the first Tuesday of the month, beginning this week, audiences can enjoy the duo, along with three or four guest comedians, offering 15-20 minutes of material each.

The show will provide a forum where professional comedians can hone their quips in front of an audience.

“We have tons of great, talented friends — a lot of them are famous and a lot of them aren’t — and we wanted to do a show in Pasadena that brings all the best people on a Tuesday night,” Bartnick said. “It’s going to be great, with comics working out new stuff or trying old bits.”

The Ice House is a good location to do this because its crowds are very representative of audiences across the United States, whereas in Hollywood, the crowds can be jaded, said Bartnick, who is a Pasadena resident.

“Comics always want places to try out new stuff. We always want places where we feel safe and at home to work on our craft, and this is one of the premier places in the country to do that,” Bartnick said. “That’s why me and Cort and everybody involved are so excited that The Ice House is giving us a chance on a Tuesday to bring the best of Hollywood to Pasadena to work on our craft.”

While Tuesday may seem like an odd night for the new venture, both men said it’s a great night for “Insensitivity Training” because it’s also an off-day for traveling comedians who are in town for weekend shows, which means there will be plenty of guests.

“Not everybody gets to go out on the weekends, we wanted to have something out there that’s available on a great night,” said McCown, who lives in Hollywood. “People should come out because what they’re going to see, is a top to bottom amazing show. It’s going to be fantastic.”
